Worth a shout: Basic Adventuring 101

May 22, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

I watched the pilot episode of Basic Adventuring 101 and then wanted to watch another. It was then that I discovered the series was pending the outcome of a Kickstarter. It doesn’t usually happen that way around any more but I think it speaks well of the show that they were able to earn attention […]

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice logo

May 21, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood 7 Comments

Zack Snyder’s next Superman movie will be called Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. We’ve the newly revealed logo too. Some thoughts about the title. Firstly, it puts Batman before Superman. I imagine that was a straight cash battle. There was no super-powered arm wrestling over that honour. Execs knew exactly which Justice League hero […]

How many times did they die? 50 years of X-Men [infographic]

May 21, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I know. I know. Infographics have to work very much harder to be worth your time and attention these days. I think this one, from Shirts.com does. It uses visuals to help you track when various X-Men first appeared, when they stopped being mentioned (often because they died) and when they appeared again. Professor X, […]

Talk Yoda to Me

May 20, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NB-xMPerGzA I tell you what – geeks seem pretty good at taking Jason Derulo’s Talk Dirty and making it their own. In this video Vicki Shae gives as the parody “Talk Yoda to Me” in a track that was released in time for Star Wars Day (May the 4th) this year. Star Wars fans; what […]

Super cute Emotin doll to summon

May 20, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This cute little fellow is a creation of Escaron. Escaron creations have appeared on Geek Native before and have not been cute at all. This Emotin doll is different. Once again Escaron built the fellow by hand; with super sculpey, acrylic paint and then stuffed with batting and grain. His fur is, we’re told, super […]

May 20, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Cosplayers Laura Ducros and Jerry LaRussa have a pair of fantastic designs here. Mass Effect 3 (and 2) gamers will recognise the Volus and Salarian suits straight away. I think the Volus is my favourite. Which is yours? Photographs by No Robots, Thomas Spanos and Cristafurion & Friends. Via Geek Girl Diva at Fashionably Geek.
